new_cranlike_repo

This function will create the following cran-like repo directory structure used by source and linux types:

new_cranlike_repo(dir = "<path/to/directory>")

directory
    |- src
        |- contrib

Note: This does not create a mac.binary type structure, but instert_packages can detect if using a mac.binary, and format that folder structure.

build_pkg

This function will build a source tarball, as well as another type tarball based on the platform used.

build_pkg(repository = "<repo>", remove_remotes = TRUE, vignettes = FALSE)

package_version.tar.gz                           # type = source
package_version.tgz                              # type = mac.binary
package_version_R_x86_64-pc-linux-gnu.tar.gz.    # type = linux

Note: If the package has a Remotes field listing packages in the DESCRIPTION file, those packages may need to be installed into the R library to build the tarballs.

insert_packages

This function will insert the package tarball into the cran-like repo, overwriting the PACKAGES files, and archiving older package builds. It will detect the type of binary, as well as the OS flavor to create a mac.binary cran-like repo structure.

insert_packages("<path/to/tarball>", "<path/to/cran-like/directory>", archive = TRUE)
